Why respond this way and not speculate on what the flaw is? Because I feel like a buyer is trying to "lock" me into what the flaw is. From there they can purchase the card and once in hand if they don't like the card's appearance, they can open a return stating an opinion different than what I provided in the message and return at my cost.

It seems if you are wanting an image from a different angle, you should directly ask.

If this flaw bothers you, move onto another copy of this card as there are 60+ SGC copies currently available on ebay.
The OP wasn't asking the seller to speculate on what the flaw could be, he was asking the seller if the flaw was on the card or from the camera. I bolded it in his quote below ...

Hello - I notice slight discoloration in the white space between the R in Reds and the top of the photo, and again in the white border beneath 'Pete' on the bottom. Are these on the card or a product of the image? I am very interested in this card.
